This has transformed my improvising over the 12-bar blues. Can’t thank you enough!!!
I' going to have to suscribe to Tomlin's school as I get so much from these free videos, it doesn't seem fair.
Thank you Tomlin.
Another great video. I saved it so I can come back to it after I learn bends and over draws.
This might be the most helpful lesson I‘ve ever seen on actually playing real blues solos. Thanks so much!
I have been looking for this explanation for the longest! This makes the most sense and opened the doors to the music halls of blues.!!!
This is by far the best explanation of the 12bb, thanks for clearly explaining targeting notes and arpeggios, now I have a solid base to start practicing knowing that I'm going in the right direction.
Hi Andres - glad it was helpful for you. Let me know how you get on with it :-)
@@TomlinHarmonica This was a great lesson
Hi...Tomlin and Liam, are two really straight forward Harmonica Teacher's. This above lesson will help myself and try to connect some dots, and sound half decent (more importantly knowing why). A very helpful video, Thank you Tomlin. Cheers.
Brillaint explanation - just what i have been looking for, getting some proper blues sounding stucture into just "playing around". Thanks so much. I was struggling with various obtuse explanations of these basic concepts - actually quite pleasantly surprised to see i was on the right track in getting this - but this little talk and dmeo put it all togehter so well!
This sure makes the 12 bar blues alot easier to understand what's going on . . . thanks Tomlin
Never want to be boring! An excellent well thought concise lesson with some very useful keys insights I have not seen presented in this way to demystify the 12 bar blues. Thanks for the post.
+blindharper scamp awesome, I'm glad to have demystified the 12 bar blues a little
Excellent lesson, Tomlin! You were born to teach!
This was a fascinating lesson. Really enjoyed it. Very helpful and got my theory working a bit more too.
Amazing - yet another fabulous lesson for someone like myself who is really trying to understand improvising over 12 bars. 😃
Thanx Tomlin I've learned tons of stuff from your videos. Really good teaching style. Stay cool bro.
Pure gold. Thank you!
Wow! Great teaching, brilliant:)
Thanks!
Aw thank you so much!!
I also want to leave a BIG THANK YOU !!! to you here. You are a great teacher Tomlin. I already learned a lot from your videos. As soon as I have reached an acceptable skill I will support you by buying some of your premium content you offer. Again, thank you very much!
Thank you Manfred!
Great lesson, thanks again for all your help.
My pleasure - glad you enjoyed it :-)
Great lesson and particularly liked the crib sheet . Nice clear info for us with dodgy eyesight!
Brilliant stuff again.
great lesson!!!!
Thankyou so much man. Just what I needed
Thanks Sujit! :--)
Essential tuition, Thanks Tom.
Thanks Jeremy :-)
This video explains what I've been looking for for months! Thanks Tomlin.
Hi, I did not understand his English 100%...can you write down the points of notes?
1, 4, 5, chords: 1=2 draw, 4=4blow, 5=4 draw and more?
What I know so far is that any blues scales can blened with1, 4, 5 chords. Right?
Charlie Chong, Tomlin's point is that you can play the single notes corresponding to the arpeggio of the chords. For chord I: 2 draw, 3 draw, 4 draw, 5 draw (see video at 5:30). For chord IV: 1 blow, 2 blow, 3 blow, 3 half-step bend (see video at 5:56). For chord V: 1 draw, 2 half-step bend, 3 whole-step bend, 4 blow (see video at 6:42).
This lesson is so good. Thanks máster.
+Odair Morales hi Odair, you are super kind, thank you!
thanks man.....very clear.
Pleasure :-)
Another homerun, Tom. I look forward to playing within the chords.
Cheers buddy :-)
What a great video - been doing this on the guitar forever, but man them OVERBLOWS, they ain't easy for us n00bz.
Great lesson Tomlin ... Say can I play the four draw half step when playing these pejios over the 12 bar blues ??? I assume you can or should I experiment with it ?????
Hi Tom.. Great videos you're making.. I have a question though.. I really want to succeed at learning the harmonica and beeing good at it.. I have so far learned single notes, bending on 4 and 3. The blues scale (The basic one). I also learned to play a song. What should be my next step/steps? I really want to keep advancing my play and not get stuck. Thank you again.
Hi Nichlas - first of all you are doing great! I would recommend learning some more tunes at this stage. If you go to my beginners section you will see a bunch of songs you can learn - ruclips.net/p/PLZbYT_90MeIwzz-yIIdZ9C1vt6ntZnnYh Let me know how you get on :-)
In the cheat sheet it says you can play any version of the root note. Does this mean if the root note is 2 draw you can play 2 draw, half step bend or 2 draw full step bend?
Thank you.
Regarding the same notes in different octives, if someone says he's playing a note of C, e.g., how would I know which C he's referencing?
So if I want to sing over the first two bars, then play two bars of licks each line, everything is on the one chord? I've been trying to figure out for months how to accompany my singing.
Just curious- should the five chord not be a 4 draw in the first octave?
Great question Ken. The root note of the V chord is a 4 draw but you don't have to play the root note over a chord. This is just an approach that I (and a lot of other teachers) teach to get people started with improvisation.
In my country ( USA) there are similar people doing this, characters that are basically square . So they
find each other and create other squares and they call it playing blues. The result is the harmonica on the net gets a a reputation like a folk banjo player. That's fine for a lot of people but this is NOT and never will be blues.
Noooooooooooo I was enjoying this and looking forward to the interesting bits, then you said the dreaded J word, jazz!! urgh noooo! :((
